“Onde está o Relâmpago que Vos Lamberá as Vossas Labaredas” addresses Dance as a paradigmatic locus/lightning of Heterodoxy in conjunction with Nietzsche's "Zarathustra," Mythologies and Art, and Eudoro de Souza's Escatology, Agostinho da Silva's Paradox, Proença's vision of Eternal Return, and Eduardo Lourenço's Heterodoxies. Drawing from Nietzsche's Philosophy/Dance and the previously mentioned authors, it explores the bodily desire for new values in the lightning of heterodoxy, questioning, experimentation, against the "despisers of the body" and against "resentment." In the search for lightning bolts that cleave Dance from Orthodoxy, dance for training and entertainment, the book focuses on the artistic, heterodox, Dionysian/irruptive vital dimension of dancing, its necessity and relevance. For the choreography of a Zarathustra dance, funambulist, in imbalance and generosity, as a manifestation of the "human, too human" capable of impeding orthodoxy, uniformity, unison, conformity, the mere repetition of patterns, increasing inhumanity.
